Why are you just figuring this out now?

The original Rose Bowl ended back in 2002 when Miami beat Nebraska in the Rose Bowl. That was 15 years ago.

But if it makes you feel any better, go ahead and drop an astrisk on USC's win in 2017 in your little book. The rest of us will still treat it like all the other Rose Bowl wins.

Final question for you: Do you think Texas fans put an astrisk on Texas' Rose Bowl win in 2005 when they they beat Michigan by 1 point? Afterall, USC was supposed to play in that game but SC decided to play Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl instead so that sort of cheapens Texas' win, using your reasoning. Something tells me Texas fans feel differently.
